Don’t cha just love it when b@ll-buster Hitlary plays the innocent, inept female?
Lack of public interest?
Seriously?
Could that agency earn any worse press?
I’m sorry, I never realized that enforcement of laws was base on public consensus. Perhaps the FBI has a poll site to decide how to apply law enforcement and we didn’t know it.
When did they ask the public?
What I heard in rally after rally after rally was:
LOCK HER UP!
OK.
How exactly does the FBI measure “public interest” ?
Because they are saying there’s not enough public interest to release the records.
Drag the FBI asshole out and ask him how he quantified public interest.
Then ask him what the standard is.
These government employees really do think they are gods and can do whatever they want.
Ok Sessions, get off your ass and tell Wray to cut the crap.
“Operating under the jurisdiction of the U.S. Department of Justice, the FBI is also a member of the U.S. Intelligence Community
and reports to both the Attorney General and the Director of National Intelligence.”
Attorney General - Former US Senator from Alabama, Jeff Sessions.
Director of National Intelligence - Former US Senator from Indiana, Daniel Coats.
NOPE! That statement justifies Summarily firing the entire FBI senior staff.
No justice, no peace!
Drag him out and flog him.
” ... lack of public interest in Hillary emails justifies withholding documents.”

Or being ignored by the media that created a lack of interest. So now the media gets to decide what is legal and illegal to the FBI?
They’ve become big swamp scum.
Lack of public interest?
How many people did they actually ask about this? What kind of filtered prism are they looking at this from? Because CNN didn’t run wall-to-wall with it doesn’t mean Joe Public you run into on your average city street wouldn’t answer to the affirmative that this would be significant to know
“I did nothing wrong at all. You have no evidence of any kind.”
“OK, you may have some evidence, but nothing substantial.”
“OK, you have substantial evidence but I can hide that from the public, so public outrage will be negligible.”
“OK, public outrage is pretty fierce, but I’m going to win the election anyway, so it doesn’t matter.”
“OK, I lost the election, but Trump is a Russian stooge, so this will all blow over.”
“OK, no one bought the Russia thing, but Trump is a Nazi, so this will all blow over.”
“OK, the Nazi thing is pretty much done, but no one ever showed any interest in that mountain of incriminating evidence I’ve been hiding for years, so that justifies me continuing to hide it.”
“I own the FBI. Go away.”
So...public opinion is now the basis for meeting a standard to prosecute. Who knew?
There must be something really bad in those emails for Comey and the rest of the FBI to blatantly lie like this.
This is when a leaker would be really justified in pushing them out all over the internet. Imagine waking up to 40,000 of Hillary’s deleted emails.
This is a make or break moment for Sessions. He better get his FBI in line TODAY.

FBI records management section chief David M. Hardy should have his ass fired!
“Public Interest” is, conveniently, whatever they define it to be. It appears that their new criterion supersedes the pursuit of equal justice under our laws.
We were once a nation of laws. Now our legal system is governed by whatever the government deems to be in the “public interest”.
